Treehouse TeacherHi there! You're doing fine, and your syntax is spot on, but you're trying to overwrite the value in answerToLife
which was already declared. This will give a syntax error. The variable you make should simply be named answer
. So if on the second line I change it from int answerToLife
to int answer
, your code passes the challenge!
Hope this helps!
